The research method was non-experimental and correlational. All married men and women in Tehran in 2018, formed the statistical population of the present study. The sample consisted of 380 married men and women who were selected by internet survey and available sampling method. Data collection tools were Perry (2004) Perceived Marital Justice Questionnaire, Julif and Farrington (2006) Marital Empathy Questionnaire, Kimiaee Internal Cohesion (2013) and Perez (2012) Marital Spirituality Questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using structural equation, correlation coefficient and analysis of variance in PLS software. The results showed that the sense of cohesion has a direct and significant effect on marital justice and spirituality. Also, marital spirituality has a mediating role on marital justice and sense of cohesion, but marital empathy has no significant effect on marital justice.
